Figures show average Wii Fit player used Balance Board four times in a month. Has Nintendo failed?

Actually, Squirrel, I think the biggest factor would be that this is a new game, and new purchasers have a significant downward effect on usage trends. For example:

Person A bought the game when the game came out a month ago, and has played it 8 times.
Person B bought the game yesterday, and has played it 1 time so far.
Person C bought the game a week ago, and has played it 3 times so far.

That would give a 4 average. You'll see usage stats go way up for any game as the number of new users decreases and those that have the game have gotten good time in with it.
